Nestled privately among the Western Point neighborhood in York, this exquisite residence is a true testament to the elegance of Maine’s shingled cottage style, seamlessly combined with modern flair. Spanning 2.63 acres, the property offers a sense of seclusion and tranquility. As you arrive, a pathway from the three-car garage leads you to impressive granite stone steps, highlighting the superior craftsmanship evident throughout the residence. Built in 1989, among the thoughtful renovations, recent updates to the kitchen and primary suite create a luxurious and inviting atmosphere. The heart of the home is a chef’s kitchen with custom-built cabinetry, white quartz countertops, an eight-burner range with double ovens, and radiant heat underfoot. The L-shaped breakfast nook, with its built-in seating, invites family gatherings. Step into the great room, a stunning two-story space that captivates with its sophisticated details with access to the awning-covered bluestone patio overlooking perennial gardens and the fenced backyard. The great room and adjoining media room feature custom cherry bookcases and cabinetry, anchored by twin stone wood-burning fireplaces. The primary suite wing offers a serene retreat, complete with cathedral ceilings, access to a private patio, and a custom walk-in closet. The pièce de résistance is the remodeled spa-like bath. Here, the interplay of warm-toned vanities against striking green tile, and a herringbone marble floor is captivating. An inviting freestanding soaking tub beckons relaxation, while exposed plumbing enhances the contemporary design of the freestanding shower. Two staircases lead upstairs to the three guest rooms, one ensuite, plus an art studio/office overlooking the great room. A finished room on the third level makes for a terrific gym. At the rear of the home are thoughtfully designed outdoor spaces including a bluestone terrace, established perennial gardens, elegant hardscaping, and a charming garden shed.

Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty has been a leading presence in the southern Maine real estate market since 1980. Based in historic York Village, Maine, we have carefully nurtured our reputation as the leading real estate agency in southern York County, including York, York Harbor, York Beach, Cape Neddick, Kittery, Kittery Point, Ogunquit, Eliot, South Berwick, Wells, Kennebunk, and Kennebunkport. Our real estate services are now offered in New Hampshire. We are the experts in waterfront and water view property, as well as historic homes and distinctive properties of all kinds. While we are most recognized as luxury real estate specialists, we are equally dedicated to marketing a wide range of properties, from small condos and building lots to starter homes to great estates. Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty was founded in 1980 by Anne Erwin, wife of prominent attorney James Erwin. Shortly after its founding, the company became one of the first to join the newly formed Sotheby’s International Realty network. Anne Erwin Real Estate quickly established itself as the leading agency in the area for marketing distinctive properties, including historic homes, oceanfront, riverfront and water view properties, and luxury country estates. In 1989, Anne Erwin retired and entrusted ownership to Eileen Roberts, who successfully maintained the tradition of service excellence while growing the company in size and scope. In November 2006, Anne Erwin Real Estate officially became Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty, with a renewed franchise agreement with what has become the world’s most prestigious real estate network, Sotheby’s International Realty. In April of 2010, Linda Briggs became the proud owner of Anne Erwin Sotheby’s International Realty, following many years with a successful track record at the firm. Her vision aligns with the previous women owners: to specialize in a marketing program that compliments its portfolio of properties while leveraging the global reach of the brand, Sotheby’s International Realty®.
